This does have the side effect of preventing departments or devisions that _really_ need to hire people from doing this and can stifle that department. I remember my dad telling me about one of his departments that really needed to hire some technicians, but there was a company wide hiring freeze, they could show that without these people they were missing out on millions of dollars of potential work, took the months to get it sorted out.
